ICT and additional support needs
The CALL Centre has developed a series of ICT advice sheets with information about ICT provision for children and young people with a variety of additional support needs.
In recent years there has been a considerable increase in the availability of information and communication technology (ICT) to support learners with additional needs.
The ICT and inclusion area aims to give a straightforward and unbiased guide to the range of assistive technologies that can help to overcome communication barriers.
